Registration Opens Today for the Influential Event Highlighting Energy Transition and Sustainable Economy
The second edition of ESG Energy and Business promises to be a milestone for professionals and stakeholders in the energy sector, with a special focus on sustainable economy and investment strategies for reducing financial risks. Scheduled for May 27 and 28 at the Fairmont Hotel in Rio de Janeiro, the event is an initiative of the Brazilian Institute of Oil and Gas (IBP) and will bring vital discussions on how ESG (environmental, social, and governance) practices directly influence corporations’ capital costs.
Investment Strategies and Reducing Financial Risks
At the forefront of the discussions will be the challenges of implementing effective ESG practices that not only contribute to environmental sustainability but also prove essential for the financial viability of companies in the energy sector. Participants will explore how the lack of initiatives in diversity and inclusion, ethics, compliance, and commitment to reducing climate change can significantly raise capital costs in the private sector. With registrations now open, the event offers a unique opportunity for updates, learning, and networking on the key trends and innovations surrounding the energy transition and sustainable economy.
Innovations and Debates on Sustainability
One of the most anticipated sessions is the roundtable with rating agencies, which will discuss asset classification from an ESG perspective, and the approach to the Sustainable Taxonomy, which seeks to identify sustainable economic activities and financial assets. Another highlight will be the debate on decarbonization initiatives, including carbon capture and storage projects (CCUS), as well as legislative discussions on offshore wind energy generation and the carbon market in Brazil.
